General description

WAY-200070 is a potent, selective estrogen receptor-beta (ER-β) agonist (IC50 2.3 nM vs. 155 nM for ER-α) with anxiolytic-like and antidepressant-like effects.

Application

WAY-200070, a selective estrogen receptor-beta (ER-β) agonist, may be used in estrogen receptor signaling research along with other ERβ agonists [diarylpropionitrile (DPN)] and antagonist to help identify and differentiate the functions of estrogen receptor-beta(s) (ER-β) involved in processes such as regulation of the physiology of the endocrine pancreas; modulation of visceral pain; and stress response. WAY-200070 may be used to help establish that an observed physiological or cell signaling response is ER-β-dependent, especially versus ERα.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Potent, selective estrogen receptor-beta (ER-β) agonist (IC50 2.3 nM vs 155 nM for ER-α) with anxiolytic-like and antidepressant-like effects.

The estrogen receptor β (ERβ) is emerging as an important player in the physiology of the endocrine pancreas. We evaluated the role and antidiabetic actions of the ERβ selective agonist WAY200070 as an insulinotropic molecule. We demonstrate that WAY200070 enhances

Coexpression of estrogen receptors (ER) α and β is present in about half of all breast cancer cases. Whereas ERα is a well-established target for endocrine therapy with the selective estrogen receptor modulator tamoxifen, the applicability of ERβ as target

Previously, pretreatment with estradiol benzoate (EB) was found to modulate the response of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and gene expression in several catecholaminergic neuronal locations in ovariectomized (OVX) rats exposed to single immobilization stress (IMO). Here, we investigated the role of

Gonadal hormones mediate both affiliative and agonistic social interactions. Research in estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) or beta (ERβ) knockout (KO) mice suggests that ERα increases and ERβ decreases male aggression, while the opposite is found for female ERαKO and ERβKO
